    Whisper barrels...
    whats that i wonder? :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 52 ✭✭Malaga2


    300 Whisper is basicaly a 5.56 case shortened and opened up to accept heavy 7.62 bullets for Subsonic work. I use everything from 110 grain Hornady V-Max bullets to 240 grain Sierra SMK's... the physics indicate that it should not work well...it does..

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again. You cannot, just CANNOT, surpass the beauty of both the M1 Garand and the M14 / M1A.

    Gorgeous rifle there Malaga, I'm dying with jealousy :p

    Plus that Whisper is a little savage, never thought I'd hear a 7.62 so quiet :D

    Don't know what happened there sharky0922. When i uploaded them they were the same size as every other picture here. When i posted them and it appeared on the thread they turned into the monsters you see now. Cannot edit the post as i've left it too long now. If they can or you know how please enlighten me. They look ridiculously big.

    When the head on your pint goes flat all you gotta do is fire a shot. Hey presto. A full beer head again. Great if you don't have a pint glass with etching in the bottom to help maintain a steady stream of CO2 bubbles :D:D

    Nice collection you have there.. She who must be obyed LOL im glad I have not had that talk yet.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,460 ✭✭✭4gun


    Thought I'd put my babies up ther with the reas of them
    Top to bottom
    CZ 550 delux .308 with a Bushnell Ledgend 5x15 x 40 scope.I removed the origional iron sights.
    Next is a Brno ZKM 611 simi-auto .22 magnum with a scope thats seen better days.This is a serious little gun,you could empty the mag. into a fox before he knows the first one has hit him.
    Then there's my Beretta ES100 12 gauge simi-auto and the last but not least is my Luciano Rota O/U that i got for the odd time I go clay shooting.:)
    The knives are from t/b and L/r a SEKI CUT from Japan
    A very cheap buck nighthawk impossible to keep an edge on it
    The one at the bottom is a KA-BAR Bull Dozier ,it had decapitated a deer with only two strikes and probably the most dangerous item on the table( I always keep it in the safe out of harms way)

    Nice setup. Do you not find the scope is mounted too high on the 308?

    When i first got the gun I wanted to mount the scope over the origional iron sights. I have since removed them and i've just kinda gotten used to whole set up to go and change it, but it was a bit odd at the begining :D

    just installed a new tuning weight to help prevent muzzle flip, had to get a new holster to hold the bloody thing but well worth it

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,041 ✭✭✭José Alaninho


    Jaysus Malaga do you not think a scope like that would be better suited to, say, a Barrett or something? :eek: :)

    Nice setup though!


  • Registered Users Posts: 52 ✭✭Malaga2


    I have a second one going on a Remington/AICS... waiting for it to come back from the Gunsmith.. being threaded for my moderator...will post pics of that when it comes back :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 205 ✭✭dimebag249


    Malaga2,

    What scope mounts do you use on the CZ? I've had trouble trying to mount a big scope on mine, between the 11mm dovetail not having as many options, the iron sights getting in the way...

    Thanks!

    Can you imagine the damage that thing would do? I'd say it can't be fired. the .17 bullet would come apart!!!!

    :D I seriously doubt anyone ever actually made a 17-50 rifle Jonty - I mean, can you imagine the outcome of firing one? :D Talk about rough on barrels! But you wouldn't have much of a fouling problem...

    I've always wanted to see how accurate a 20,000 fps bullet would be :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 205 ✭✭dimebag249


    I've always wanted to see how accurate a 20,000 fps bullet would be :D

    Aparrantly (can't remember where i read it, but came across it in a few places) the fastest velocity possible with a conventional cartridge firearm, or any firearm that uses expanding gasses to propel a projectile is about 6,000 fps. Something to do with physics or chemistry or something. :confused: Any faster and you need a rail gun. Or maybe a shooting range built inside a vacuum. Hopefully a science person can explain, or at least say if i'm just talking complete horse poop.

    I don't normally post stuff just seen on the 'net in here for obvious reasons, but this one was just too W-T-F to pass up. Ladies and Gents, I give you the Mosin-Nagent pistol. In case you wanted a more unusual route than a bad fall with which to break your wrist backwards...

    That pistol would **** up your wrist something awful. No point in having five rounds in the stripper. Even if you can recycle and then change hands, you only get two shots. :p
